Lacryma Christi del Vesuvio Bianco D.O.C.
Unripe notes of fresh fruits and flowers stretched over a bed of smirk smells. The palate is stimulated by an important acid-sapid thrust.
Excellent as an aperitif accompaniment. To be served also with Soppressata from Gioi or Cilento Cacioricotta. Perfect with pasta or rice in preparation with shellfish or seafood.
